He's already a Marxist, but doesn't realise he's accidentally reinventing Dialectical analysis in the slowest way possible while holding his fingers in his ears yelling "lalalalala I'm developing positivism actually!"
I reckon he's going to basically write State and Revolution in 15 years but it'll be called something absurd like "The rational sword cuts only the rotten beams of the cathedral"
You should write that! I know you've got the theory background, and you clearly know how to write in the rationalist lingo. You could write a rational!StateAndRev under a Definitely Not A Yudkowsky Alt pseudonym, post it on /r/rational, and convert a bunch of tech weirdoes to the cause.
Nah, this is a false flag. Accelerationism would be if you somehow increased the rate of the natural process by which the contradictions in the rationalist community manifests. Giving Yudkowsky a brick of cocaine, I guess.
I'm going to take an even edgier position.

I could do it, but could I ever feel clean again?
Edit: also, is this accelerationism?
Alas. If only there was a Dirt_Mardoniush.

Honestly I think drugging him with Peyote for 3 weeks straight would do him a world of good.
Would you characterize this plan as more of a road trip movie, or more of a heist movie?
Relevantly, I'm a good driver and have some unpublished major advancements in AI that we could use as bait.
I think it's more of a stoner comedy.
His self insert fanfic character is clearly a maoist. When I asked about this people got upset.
